Dreaming of good literature


Levi has started asking to take a book to nap,which we usually allow, since it tends to help him be quiet, aiding in his actually falling asleep. Falling...the book, that is...usually somewhere on his upper body, where he let it drop as he lost consciousness. Taylor sneaked in to check on him the other day and had to leave promptly so his laughter would not wake him up. (Though it probably wouldn't have, since dropping the book on his face didn't seem to faze him any. :)

P.S. I just learned something: Spell-check, and my old Webster's dictionary inform me that "snuck", as in the past-tense of sneak, just aren't proper English - regardless of the fact that it has sounded just fine to me for the past 20-something years. Good old West Texas English...it'll get ya every time. :)

Hilarious! I am also an advocate for allowing books in bed. =)

I think this is why spell check has an "add word" feature, and why dictionaries have an "exhaustive" edition.

Oh, and save that photo so you can show it to any girl he should bring home.
